Emily Bergl 'nervous joining Housewives'

Emily Bergl has admitted that she was nervous about joining the cast of Desperate Housewives, after hearing rumors about on-set arguments.

The actress joined the ABC show as Beth Young, the new wife of Wisteria Lane returnee Paul (Mark Moses), and made her on-screen debut last week.

"I was nervous at first," Bergl told Daemons TV. "I didn’t know what it would be like, and frankly, I'd heard rumors about the show.

"I have to say that I’m bewildered because they’re completely unwarranted. I mean, Mark Moses and every single one of the desperate housewives including Vanessa Williams have been so kind and welcoming to me."

She added: "I haven’t seen a single problem on that set. I have been on other sets that I have that don’t have that same reputation."

Bergl praised Moses as an "incredible actor" and said that she was having the "most fun" she had ever had working on the show.
